The Pensions Regulator could seek to claw back money from Carillion’s former directors as it comes under increasing pressure from MPs to act in the face of the company’s yawning pension deficit.

TPR said it was considering issuing a so-called 'contribution notice' against the senior management team behind the failed outsourcer, a move which would allow it to demand a contribution to the pension pot from particular individuals.

Currently, the Pension Protection Fund will pick up the estimated £800m liability which Carillion was carrying when it collapsed in January.
